Military

Cornell University provides time away from work to eligible employees for a variety of reasons. Time away from work must be approved and recorded in a manner that protects the interests of both the institution and its employees.

Cornell University provides several kinds of leave to assist nonacademic staff members to balance the demands of the workplace, their individual needs, and the needs of their families, in ways that accommodate the legitimate interests of campus units.

In light of the events of September 11, 2001, University Policy 6.9, Time Away From Work, Section on Military Leave, is being amended effective January 1, 2002 through December 31, 2019 by adding the following pay and benefits provisions for those staff members called to active military duty.
